Turned Out Alright - Craig J. Hansen

When we first met you seemed so helpless
But I soon learned that wasn’t true
You could laugh, but you knew what you wanted and I began to understand you.

You were curious about everything and you soon had a lot to say
I didn’t always understand what you were talking about
But I listened anyway
I listened anyway.

Chorus
The best I could do was just be myself
The best I could give could not come from somebody else
And as we look back, I think it turned out alright
It turned out alright.

For you, I’d go to work each day
Though it was sometimes hard to do
For you, I would fix what’s broke
And even tolerate the zoo.

For you, I tried to keep the house clean
For you, I paid the bills
Drove you to endless lessons and games
And appreciated your skills.

Chorus
